Comments on: How to Get Him to Propose

on 2/9/2007 I have the man, he loves me, I love him, but....???? Show me the ring!

on 1/12/2007 I have tried everything. We have gone on many vacations. We get along very well and have a geat sex live. We do not live together, I have my own life. I am intelligent, good looking, and I get along with his familiy. I have made it clear that it is what I wan't and I have tried backing off and not mentioning it. We have been together for 4 years and I am not getting any younger. I wan't to be with him. I don't know what else to do?

on 1/2/2007 I have tried backing off, I don't live with him and I have my own life. I have been with him for four years. We never fight, sex is great, and we trust each other. I am very attractive, intelligent and I get along with his family. Yet, I am still waiting. And I have made it clear that it is what I want. I don't know what else to do????

on 12/21/2006 I'm not the most patient person in the world, but I learned that the more pressure you put, the less likely for the guy to propose. Leave him to it. Let him think things out instead. I stopped even mentioning the idea of marriage to my boyfriend, and soon enough, he was the one to bring up the topic, and he was the one to suggest ring shopping. Men do things all in their own time. Just love 'em.. They'll marry you when they're ready.

on 12/19/2006 So we've been together for more than two years and in principle we've talked about that we'd like to marry some day and have kids. I also made it clear that I want HIM to propose 'properly'. However, nothing is happening even though there were plenty of opportunities. Sometimes I'd just like to know whats going on inside his head and why he isn't asking me...

on 10/20/2006 these are great tips, if the guy you want to marry has already been thinking of marrying you. if not, he will feel way too much pressure. if he truely loves you, and wants to be with you, he WILL propose, and needs NO help. make sure not to pressure him, or you will lose him.

on 8/8/2006 Men want to be in charge; and in this case it's really important. Don't lead him into something. He has to want to do it. If you weren't thinking about marriage one day, imagine how long it would take to change your mind. Men are no different.

on 6/30/2006 If you've been together for awhile (1 year or more) and you've expressed your interest in marriage, but he just isn't getting it; then it's time to drop the subject and get interested in yourself again! Go shopping, buy some fabulous shoes, spritz on a new sexy scent, and choose a deep pinkish-red color for your toes. Then, take up a salsa class or get lost with the girls out on Friday nights more often. Be aloof, but still sweet, and when you do go somewhere with him, look fabulous so that other men will notice you. He'll be so freaked out he'll do whatever possible to keep you!

on 6/30/2006 I want to propose, but I'm in a tough financial spot right now, not to mention I'm having trouble coming up with a good way and decent location to ask her. Women aren't the only ones who want things to be perfect when it comes to their wedding. Give your guy the time he needs to put everything together, and you'll both have romantic memories, instead of regrets. Remember, this is the only time you two will be getting married, so let him do it right, instead of rushing him.

on 3/23/2006 You may surprised by what he says! Quite often he's holding off actually committing until he feels financially secure enough to pop the question: most men expect to be the breadwinner, especially if kids are on the cards. This is a good thing. Until then, leave him alone on the subject, make him feel wanted, and it will happen! You should still discuss wills and what happens if you split up, so that in the event of a breakup or death, you will be provided for.

on 3/17/2006 In car sales the most important rule is ABC - Always Be Closing. The same applies to men, always let them know when you are happy, when you are sad, and when you want sex. They can't read your mind.

on 2/15/2006 Live a clean life, be a virgin in all senses before you marry, women! If you are not ready to truly be your love's equal (in all senses of the word), don't even think of having kids or getting married. Men usually will probably end up thinking before and after marriage that women are trying to trap them and bleed them dry. If you come together into a relationship as equals in past deeds and attitudes, and try to maintain that and never try to one-up your partner, then it should work out well. Not only does a man not want the cow when he can get the milk for free. He usually doesn't want a cow someone else had or was getting the milk for free. If your mate doesn't treat you equally leave them. The one that is meant for you will, in all circumstances, try to have kinder words with you in all situations than any other human being on the face of the planet; if he really loves you.

on 12/20/2005 Tell him you want to get married. Make this an important issue in your life. He won't agree since he doesn't want to feel this is done under pressure. Then, let go. The issue was raised, now that there is no pressure he will soften out.

on 11/22/2005 Simply look him in the eyes and tell him you think he is great and you love him. Tell him that he is the man you want to marry. If he loves you then he will be flattered.

on 11/22/2005 Because of materialistic "standards" surrounding the engagement and wedding and the high divorce rates, your man may simply be scared that you want to get engaged/married because you want a big ring/wedding.

If you don't care about an engagement ring, tell him. If you want a small wedding, tell him. If you really want to spend the rest of his life with him and are ready to put in the effort it takes to preserve your marriage despite problems, tell him. Tell him you really want to be with him for better or for worse, for a long as you both shall live.

Then he will know how much you love HIM and not his money and how much you believe in marriage and in spending your entire life with him.

Once his fears have no longer reason to be, he will start thinking about proposing to you. Promise.
